In this episode of What Do You Say? With Dr. Eric J., Superintendent Dr. Eric Becoats sits down with Pennsylvania Speaker of the House Joanna McClinton for an inspiring and thoughtful conversation about leadership, service, and civic engagement.

Speaker McClinton shares how her lifelong commitment to serving her community led her into public service, even though being an elected office wasn’t part of her original plan. She reflects on her journey to Harrisburg, the challenges and lessons from this year’s state budget process, and what motivates her to advocate for students, families, and educators across the Commonwealth.

Dr. Becoats also asks her what young people can do to make a difference today, and her answer is clear, practical, and empowering.

Tune in for a conversation filled with insight, encouragement, and a powerful reminder of the impact each of us can make.
